A lot of poker players also play Magic Pro Tour level as well (such as Dave Williams). Same basic concepts in bluffing, probability, and knowing how to play a good hand versus tossing it for a better hand or even making the best of a bad one.
Yeah I remember reading through some young professional poker players profiles a while back, I was surprised at how many had started out as professional Magic players.
I hate that I thought I had won a bet when I found out Spain beat South Africa earlier today, but apparently since they won in extra time it didn't count.
